Most songs are over 2 minutes, so restricting sounds to that length can be described only as less torturous that 15/30 seconds (whatever it was before). A raise to 5 minute sounds would allow users to upload most songs (with the exception of a few) and avoid having to chop songs in half which would require too much work to have any sort of efficiency. Of course, a price increase would be necessary for users uploading sounds over 2 minutes, but it's worth it to have the option.

AND I almost forgot, let users see the length of a sound when listening to it on the site.

Couldn't there be copyright issues or something??
But I do support your second idea.

@PokeShadow Please do explain how 2 minutes of a song is perfectly acceptable while 5 is not. Copyright issues are already an issue. Any determined player could just upload two or three sections of the song. It'll take them longer but the result is the same. Take a look at YouTube, people upload copies of songs all the time as lyrics videos and those remain up, so copyright holders have a lot more important targets to go after in any event.

Support, but this can cause copyright issues.

Nobody seems to understand this - I don't think ROBLOX's intent with audio was so people could upload whole bits of copyrighted songs; I mean, a little custom soundtrack is fine, but seriously, is there any reason to upload a song like Radioactive? (Okay, there may be... but that's beside the point...)

Also, this would slow moderation down a LOT. 5 minutes? I wonder how they even deal with 2, to be honest.

@Little So can two minutes and it hasn't so far.

@Poke You're completely missing the entire point of this post. I'm not here to debate the details of whether or not extra moderation would be required. Anyone can make up dozens of issues with any suggestion but the fact of the matter remains that ROBLOX would be greatly benefited by five minute sounds. That's like someone suggesting universes and complaining about how troublesome it would be to code such a feature.
